Return to River Vista

We have made a full circle and are now back at River Vista for a few months.  There were 4 other workkamper couples here when we arrived.  Sandy & Billy Collins, Larry & Penny Froemming, June & Butch Beer, and lastly Ed and Sharon Linderman.  All are wonderful people and really made us feel welcome.  We had a wonderful evening with all of them shortly after we arrived as can be seen below.


Sandy and Billy, upper left in the photo,  left shortly after we arrived and the others are leaving at different times.  Sherree and I think we will have it all to ourselves in November and December. 

We have already had some new experiences.  Sherree called Bingo one evening and made snow cones one afternoon as I helped Tommy paint the spa building by operating the front in loader to lift him up.  My grandson, Jake, is really into heavy equipment so I have moved up in his eyes.






Ed & Sharon own their lot so Ed had 10.5 tons of granite rock delivered to add to his parking area.  I went over and helped him spread it around.  As you can see it was raining, which it has done on a regular basis since we arrived on July 8.  In fact it rained everyday at least once for the first 10 days we were here.  Almost everyone was complaining but Sherree and I have really enjoyed it.  It's nice to see rain after the dryness in Texas.


We also took a quick trip to be there when our grandson, Caleb, was baptized.  It was a wonderful day of celebration and worship.  We were thrilled to be there for such a momentous occasion in Caleb's life.



After the ceremony there were hot dogs, water melons, cotton candy, & rides for kids and adults.
